Now i know its the solenoid on the left that causes this primary movement, because the one on the right was shot at the time & i checked this out before i replaced it. (& during the busted solenoids removal.) & also switched the connector plugs & found a similar thing happened except the solenoid activated with the AC too?
This is the vacuum pump...? (Right at the bottom (2/2 with the hand pointing???) http://www.lushprojects.com/bongopartsm ... 1of02.html Whats causing the vacuum if the engine isn't running on plug warm up...? Or have i got it wrong???![]()

The way mine is set up to start on cold mimics the tick-over full temp when up to temp & AC on a constant 750.. Works for me, like that when i got it!
dont really suppose it matters a lot,i will check under the wifes petty coat when i get chance to see which does what on hers.there are 3 different places where the pipes could be crossed over so.
the vacuum is stored i think from when it was last run, im going to try to test that,i will take the pipe off before attempting to start it up, it must be stored, then when the ignition is put on the solenoid opens to let the vac through to the chamber.
thanks guys for these replys,good to bat things about.![]()



Not very scientific i know, i just reverse engineered, found what was broke & replaced carefully after figuring one of my solenoids was shot a while back when reading an AC post & getting a bit of advice from Alan & Kirsty at the time...


Glad we sorted that out!! It also explains why the two solenoids are needed....
